Publishing a business entity
A business entity contains information about the business that
has published a service. Before you can publish a business service,
you must publish a business entity.
You can publish a business entity using two different publication
formats: simple and advanced.
Simple Allows
you to enter the minimal amount of information required to publish your business
entity. A simple publish only allows you to specify only one name and
one business description.
Advanced Allows you
to enter more information about your business entity. An advanced publish
allows you to specify multiple names and descriptions for multi-lingual support.
